[Intro]
Am     Em
[Strophe]
      Am 
I was perched outside in the pouring rain 
Em 
Trying to make myself a sail 
          G 
Then I'll float to you my darlin' 
         D7 
With the evening on my tail 
                 Am 
Although not the most honest means of travel 
   Em 
It gets me there nonetheless 
      G 
I'm a heartless man at worst, babe 
      D7 
And a helpless one at best
[Refrain]
             Am 
Darling I'll bathe your skin 
          Em 
I'll even wash your clothes 
             G                   D7 
Just give me some candy, before I go 
                 Am 
Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes 
                 Em 
And lay you down on your rug 
             G 
Just give me some candy 
        D7 
After my hug
[Strophe]
      Am 
Oh I'm often found explaining 
Em 
But to her it plays out all the same 
          G 
and although I'm left defeated 
         D7 
It get's held against my name 
                 Am 
I know you got plenty to offer baby 
   Em 
But I guess I've taken quite enough 
      G 
Well I'm some stain there on your bedsheet 
      D7 
You're my diamond in the rough
[Refrain]
             Am 
Darling I'll bathe your skin 
          Em 
I'll even wash your clothes 
             G                   D7 
Just give me some candy, before I go 
                 Am 
Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes 
                 Em 
And lay you down on your rug 
             G 
Just give me some candy 
        D7 
After my hug
[Instrumentale]
Am Em G D7
Am Em
[Refrain]
  G                             D7 
I know that there´re writings on the wall 
                Am 
But Darling I'll bathe your skin 
          Em 
I'll even wash your clothes 
  G 
Just give me some candy 
        D7 
Before I go
[Outro]
C                      G 
I'll be there waiting for you 
C                        G 
Oh I'll be there waiting for you 
C                      Em 
Oh I'll be there waiting for you 
C                      G 
I'll be there waiting for you 
C                   Em 
I'll be there waiting for you  
C 
All the cutthroats and their jagged ends 
G 
All of them have got me waiting and waiting 
C 
All the cheap and their sugary philosophies 
Em 
Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting 
C 
All the angels and their halos 
G 
All of them have got me waiting and waiting 
C 
All the cutthroats and their jagged ends 
Em 
All of them have got me waiting and waiting 
C 
All the cheap and their sugary philosophies 
G 
Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting 
C 
All the angels and their halos 
Em 
All of them have got me waiting and waiting
